Abstract

This presentation will focus on creating
resilient teams that define and deliver projects in the face
of major shocks to their organizations, markets and business
plans. There is a critical need to map new business
goals to the tactical decision making and risk management on
projects.

Like most risks that projects face, success or failure is
determined by what the team does early in the project.
Adam Josephs will identify specific actions and guiding
principals that have proven very useful on technology
projects. Specific tools to jump start multi-national
project teams in areas such as product development and IT
will be discussed.

Topic: Managing the First
Impression

Whether you are
meeting a new boss, changing jobs or looking for your next
promotion, managing the impression you make and how you come
across to others often determines your success or failure.
Seemingly small things often make a big difference in
interactions with others. We all have our own unique style
of communicating with others.

communicate and how you can use this knowledge to your
advantage in making the best impression you possibly can.
